Settlers attacked Palestinian farmers gathering olives on land between the towns of Qassra and Jaloud south of Nablus on Sunday, the Shehab wire reported. The attackers seized equipment the workers were using during the harvest season.
The incident occurred as Palestinians conduct their annual olive harvest across the occupied West Bank, a critical period for rural livelihoods that frequently sees confrontations with settlers.
